The Dow Chemical Company's
Packaging and Specialty Plastics business (P&SP) will showcase sustainable solutions from the packaging, adhesives, transportation, infrastructure and consumer market segments at Chinaplas 2018 . Innovations will be on display from April 24 to 27 in The National Exhibition and Convention Center, Hall 7.2, Booth D69 in Shanghai.

"China's middle class is growing in numbers, in affluence, and in its commitment to sustainability," said Bambang Candra, Asia Pacific commercial vice president of Dow Packaging and Specialty Plastics. "For Dow and our partners across the value chain, our responsibility is not only to meet the demand in terms of volume and efficiency, but to do so with innovations that increase performance and productivity while reducing resource consumption and waste."

Performance is a key enabler of Dow technologies for the production of lighter weight, recyclable and re-usable plastics. Aligned with the theme, "Together, We Deliver More," products at Chinaplas will address sustainability trends in food and specialty packaging, industrial packaging, health and hygiene products, transportation, infrastructure and more. Highlights include:

Tenter Frame Biaxially Oriented Polyethylene (TF-BOPE) Film . Recognized by the industry with a 2018 Ringier Technology Innovation Award, TF-BOPE film is a revolutionary alternative to traditional polyethylene (PE) film that takes the complexity out of recycling multi-layer packaging. TF-BOPE not only offers twice the impact resistance of traditional PE, and almost three times more puncture resistant, but also provides converters and brand-owners with an economical and functional alternative to expensive substrates, like BOPA.

AGILITY(TM) EC Performance LDPE Resins . Specifically designed to allow for high coating speed at low gauges, AGILITY(TM) Resins offer remarkable adhesion, sealing and optical properties. They can be used in either single or co-extruded structures such as decor, lamination and sealant layers in a variety of flexible food, home and personal care packaging applications.

ProtectionPlus : A collaboration with Newton Lab, this partnership is aimed at improving transportation safety in Asia through optimizing packaging on pallets and assisting value chain partners in making sure pallet packaging is safe, secure and more sustainable.

Infrastructure: A broad product line of high performance ethylene copolymers and advanced elastomers deliver unique functionality across diverse infrastructure markets to deliver safer, stronger, more durable and efficient solutions.

Photovoltaics (PV): Advanced Polyolefin Elastomers (POE) improve power output and performance of PV modules through POE-based encapsulant films that reduce cost and help safeguard energy generation over the lifetime of a PV system.
